This was pretty well thought out by the developer and I believe it solves more problems than it creates.

So the maintenance of one side of your property is dependent on the actions of your neighbor. It's my understanding that a lot of these PV's have absentee owners who rent them out. I for one would not want a lot of vegetation growing up by my walls and the the one in the OP's pic has a bush in front of the electric meter which is a SECO easement violation. Apparently they didn't tell the OP about this before they bought it. Glad I bought a regular house.
